POWERUP is a table top game for 1 to 5 players inspired by classic platform video games. Specifically the Run-And-Gun ones.

Remember how it felt to meet your best friend at the local arcade to play? We loved that feeling! And that’s why we decided to create this game. We want to bring you back to that place, and to be able share it with a younger generation as well.

You will be part of an elite squadron in charge of eliminating Earths’ biggest threat: The BUGS. The BUGS are creatures from an X Dimension who delight in annoying and tormenting humans crossing their path. Only a small elite group has the skills to stop them, and that’s you guys: The BUGBUSTERS! Run, shoot, punch, pummel, pick up coins and upgrade your character. Destroy the BUGs to win.

Do you like retro platform games? Did you own a Megadrive and watch Masters of the Universe? Were you one of the ones that scooped up coins other players had left behind? POWERUP is a game for you.

One of the masters of the superhero RPG genre, Christopher McGlothlin (Time of Crisis, Time of Vengeance, Golden Age, Noir, Freedom City Rogue's Gallery, Earth Prime Atlas), has a new book. It's called World Defenders: The Summit. It’s a fun supplement about a team of superheroes. (Or supervillains, if you prefer.) It’s also been beautifully illustrated in full color by Storn Cook, whose work has appeared in hundreds of RPG products over the years.

In fact, World Defenders: The Summit actually marks the beginning of a new era in Chris' career. The release of this book will be the first product from Chris's new imprint GHOST SHOW PRESS. Yes, Chris has decided to hang out his own shingle and produce his own projects. There's more on that below in the Creative Team section.

Castles of Caleira is a beautifully illustrated, fantasy landscape microgame for 2-4 players that uses clever interaction, and strategic decisions for players to compete to build the castle that history remembered.

Bad Medicine is a hilarious party game in which you are a pharmaceutical company making horrible drugs. It launched on Kickstarter in February 2015, made four times its funding goal, and delivered to backers later that year. Since then, it's received praise from The A.V.

It's been out of print since then. With your help, we can bring it back, with a great expansion!

In the CAPERS tabletop roleplaying game, you portray a character with extraordinary abilities in the Roaring Twenties. As a gangster, you seek to exploit the law and get rich off of alcohol, gambling, prostitution, and racketeering. You join up with other players to collectively seek your fortunes in the vice-riddled, booze-soaked casinos and speakeasies of the Jazz Age.

Alternatively, you and the other players can portray members of law enforcement seeking to bring these criminals to justice.

CAPERS is a game of action, adventure, virtue, and vice in a world coming into its own. It’s a world of theft, fraud, subterfuge, and espionage. Your character will risk their life to find their place in this world, regardless of which side of the law they fall on.

Cartel is a Mexican narcofiction tabletop roleplaying game—designed by me, Mark Diaz Truman!—a version of which I originally published as a 50-page preview for Gen Con 2015.

The ashcan edition of Cartel had all the basic materials you needed to play the game, but I’ve spent the last two and a half years refining the rules, expanding the mechanics, and honing the game to a razor’s edge. Now, I’m funding a complete version of Cartel as a beautiful, full color, hardbound 8” x 8” book, packed with amazing art and useful tools.

In Cartel, you play bold narcos, naïve spouses, and dirty cops tied to the Sinaloa drug cartel, trying to keep your head in an increasingly dangerous game of drugs, money, and power. Navigate complex and dangerous relationships, make desperate plays for money and power, and discover how far you are willing to go to hold on to what is yours. Buena suerte, cabrón.
